Topics include:

(1) The nature of God's wrath: His love perceived as wrath by those who reject Him, corrective not punitive;

(2) Expiation (the doing away of our sin by His blood) not propitiation (a bribe to God);

(3) The Day of Atonement and Redemption in Christ;

(4) Christ makes us a Kingdom of Priests, entering the Holy of Holies with Him in the Liturgy;

(5) Justification by grace through faith; Faith and the Law; Faith and circumcision; Abraham's faith preceded his circumcision, which was a seal of that faith;

(6) Abraham's faith and him being the father of many nations who follow in his faith.
